That's actually really sad... :bluesad: Title: Re: RIP Tom Clancy Post by: Umaril Has Returned on October 02, 2013, 03:59:35 PM Seriously? What a loss...a guy who wrote all-too-real military novels with a great slant for hypothetical and alternate historical universe scenarios, what a gifted writer. Ubisoft immortalized is characters in the Rainbow 6, Splinter Cell and Ghost recon game series, and did it well. Rest in peace, Mr. Clancy, our Warriors and Heroes who went before you are icing up a cold one for you and are ready to salute you upon your arrival. Go easy, bro, your tour of duty is over. Mission accomplished. Title: Re: RIP Tom Clancy Post by: indianasmith on October 02, 2013, 11:00:56 PM Mission accomplished indeed. The world has lost a fine writer and an American patriot. Somewhere, Jack Ryan is wearing black.
Title: Re: RIP Tom Clancy Post by: Jack on October 03, 2013, 06:27:58 AM That's really too bad. I've read most of his books, think I read the Cardinal of the Kremlin twice.
RIP Mr. Clancy, you were taken too early. Title: Re: RIP Tom Clancy Post by: Trevor on October 04, 2013, 01:47:46 AM Patriot Games is still my favourite film adaptation of one of his books.

Title: Re: RIP Tom Clancy Post by: BoyScoutKevin on October 07, 2013, 05:47:58 PM I was checking to see what he has written, and I found out there is not one of his books that I have read, nor have I seen any of the films based on any of his books. But, I will say that at 66, that is too young, now days, to die. Let him R.I.P. Tom!
